Tour of Flanders : Mon Apr 07, 2014 10:40 am  

Got to see the final 50km yesterday and what a race.

I can't see past Cancellara next week on the kind of form he is in right now. Boonen seems to be struggling with his broken thumb (and heart after him and his mrs losing a baby). Sagan got broken by the pace of ther race and attacks late on. OPQS looked for all the world to have the numbers to make it their race but without Boonen being able to make the decisive break they didn't have the fire power.

As for the final 7km it was pretty obvious who would win from that group.

So......Paris Roubaix. Anyone think Cancellara can be beaten?

Fascinating race, gripped by it.

Can I see past Spartacus for the hell of the north? In a word; no but I can see Vanmarcke arriving into the velodrome alongside him again.

My bet of the day though is a little each-way nibble on Zdenek Stybar at 50/1.

Decent shout. In form, excellent bike handler... what's not to like?
